(Not so) State of the Union Speech

[Cadaverous Pallor]

Watched most of it. Great speech. My favorite moment was when he said that high school dropouts are not acceptable, and that they quitting not only on themselves, but on America. His attitude towards being competitive in the world is admirable - it's competitiveness not through absolute belief that we are better people, but through being a better nation.

He is taking a big risk in sticking to his guns on health care and energy even as he is trying to save the economy. I am so completely behind him on this. These things can't wait.

I loved listening to President Obama last night. Much of what he said resonated with me and I agree on his big point on not quitting, in particular in relation to students.

I think Bobby Jindal looks and sounds like a really creepy mortician. He creeps me out totally.

I know it's terrible, but I kept expecting him to end the speach with "Thank you, come again!".
